[Cluster-devel] [PATCH] tunegfs2: Add some malloc error checking

Static analysis found a possible null pointer dereference due to a
missing check in read_super. The malloc'd memory was also not being
freed on error conditions. This patch adds a check for a null pointer
and frees the allocated memory.
